Parallel processing can reduce the cost of computing, improve reliability and provide greater throughput. Equally important is the likelihood that real-life problems contain parallelism that should be exploited in the computer architecture if natural solutions are to be found. Many parallel machines are now on the market, both single instruction, multiple data (SIMD) and multiple instruction, multiple data (MIMD), but software engineering techniques have yet to make their complete impact on these architectures.

Three commonly used benchmark programs: the Whetsone, the Dhrystone, and the Sieve, were run on an IBM PC, an IBM PC/AT, a Vax 11/785 and a Vax 8600 computer. The results show very large differences in performances predicted by the different benchmarks.
